Hi, I'm trying to do some changes to my XP classic desktop with XPize v5 R4 Dark Side already installed.

1. my new StartMenu banner: ( I'm not sure if I use the correct font Tahoma )

2. and some modified cursors: ( from Aero theme, two animated )

I upload a .rar file with the cursors for your testing.

Thanks and I'm waiting for your opinions.

Looks like there is no space between "WindowsXPProfessionalSP3" (maybe im li'l blind) but like it!

Cursors looks ok, i think i can replace classic icons for the first time.

Personally I like standard 3D-White (system theme). But it contains two flat icons - Help Select and Link Select. I've made two replacement icons that fit the theme nicely (see attachment). But I don't know where the original resources located.

The Windows XP logo font is ITC Franklin Gothic, not Tahoma.

Thanks for your replies ! I'll try to do some modifications

For Windows, it's default folder to store cursors is C:\WINDOWS\Cursors . But is a good idea use any other safe folder ( away from the system partition ) to save your cursor theme and all related files: icons, events sounds, wallpapers ...

However, for activate our changes we need to go to Control Panel -> Mouse -> Pointers. After made the changes, we can save the name's theme.
